One choice can transform you--or it can destroy you.

"New York Times" bestselling author Veronica Roth's much-anticipated second book of the dystopian "Divergent" series is another intoxicating thrill ride of a story, rich with hallmark twists, heartbreaks, romance, and powerful insights about human nature
Book 2 of the Divergent trilogy. Tris tries to understand why Erudite faction are trying to destroy the others, and tries to keep the remainder of her faction safe. Meanwhile mostly acting like an idiot and lying to everyone about what she's doing, usually for no good reason. Continues an interesting story, but not as good as the first book.

La situación de Tris es ahora más peligrosa que nunca y ha de poner remedio a sus problemas de la mejor forma posible. Este libro comienza justo en el punto en el que terminó el anterior después del ataque que sufrió Abnegación y si su antecesor había conseguido atarme a sus páginas casi sin remedio alguno, éste no ha sido la diferencia.

No obstante, en su búsqueda de toda la verdad, Tris nos hará preguntarnos hasta qué punto vale arriesgar por la verdad y si nosotros estaríamos dispuestos a sacrificarlo todo por conseguirla.

That's it. I'm done. I tried. I really tried. [b:Divergent|13335037|Divergent (Divergent, #1)|Veronica Roth|https://d202m5krfqbpi5.cloudfront.net/books/1328559506s/13335037.jpg|13155899] held my attention long enough to make me think there was hope for this series. Then this sucker came along and I discovered that I didn't really care about anyone or anything Ms. Roth was feeding me. Zero caring.
I wanted this series to fill the gap that had been left since [b:Mockingjay|7260188|Mockingjay (The Hunger Games, #3)|Suzanne Collins|https://d202m5krfqbpi5.cloudfront.net/books/1358275419s/7260188.jpg|8812783] ended. No such luck. :(
